That's a new term for me, but Google didn't blink and went straight to
Asian pear. Every Asian I know calls them apple pears, so I do too.

Asian pear

Pyrus pyrifolia is a species of pear tree native to East Asia. The
tree's edible fruit is known by many names, including: Asian pear,
Chinese pear, Korean pear, Japanese pear, Taiwanese pear, and sand
pear. Wikipedia
